While we wouldn't have Blake's 7 without Terry Nation, an argument can be made that Chris Boucher was crucial in how the show evolved- and it's likely that without him Blake's 7 wouldn't have been as brilliant.

So... without further ado

I have concluded that Jenna is Blake-aware, Blake is Avon-aware, Avon is self-aware and Gan is rarely aware. Vila is merely wary. Cally is frequently more away than aware.

Boucher. The series wouldn't have been the way it was without him, as a writer and script editing others scripts throughout the series, and Blake, Terry was critical of him for writing that episode in the way he did. Blakes 7 would have been yet another unresolved series without that story, left hanging as it were.

Arguably Boucher wrote the best episodes. While Terry Nation created the world and the characters, it would have never gotten that far without Boucher's stories. Also, Star One, Rumors, Deathwatch.

I think Terry once commented he didn't recognise some of his scripts after Boucher had tightened them up. Don't forget City and Rescue. Deathwatch was a last minute replacement, still a good story but borrows heavily from the Dueling Machine by Ben Bova.

Terry dreamed the world into existence and Boucher made it alive and vibrant and unique

Terry Nation created Blake's 7, it was his imagination of the characters and the galaxy under the rule of the tyrannical Federation which got the programme off the ground. So I feel I should vote for him...

But

Chris Boucher was the one who took Terry's idea and developed it further, he was the production constant throughout all 52 episodes and wrote a lot of my favourite stories (Shadow, Star One, City, Rescue, Blake) but ironically it is a TN penned story which is my fave of them all. Further minus points to CB in that as script editor he, perhaps, should have greater control in making characters consistent in their actions and behaviours.

Therefore, in the end I think I will go for Terry Nation - just! It was his creation, if he didn't have that idea then none of us here would even be debating this topic
